1. Red Sox vs. Yankees:

* Game times 2:55 / 3:12 / I’m going to bed its heading toward 4 hours
* Dempster is Just Another Guy as Bill Parcells would say (5.1 inning is not enough)
* Nice of Stephen Drew to make an appearance – he’s used up his medical deductible with Blue Cross I bet
* Sox looking at Peavy
* Great play by Yankee catcher Chris Stewart leaping in the stands Saturday looking like Carlton Fisk
* If Jonny Gomes had better hand and eye coordination he would hit .300 with his quick and short to the ball swing

2. British Open:

* Big finish for Phil
* From ESPN – Tiger over last six majors: 11 under first two rounds / 23 over the second two rounds
* More from ESPN – Tiger in Majors from 2005-2011: 60 under last two rounds / 29 weekend rounds under par from 2005-2011 – 2 from 2011-2013
* Lee Westwood looked fat
* Ian Poulter looked like a bill board or race car with all the endorsements he was wearing
* Was it me or was the crowd scarce?

10. Randomocity:

* Remember punks as a kid / Flashlight tag / kick the can / home when street lights come on / sledding on streets / hydrants open / ice cream truck meant something / sprinklers on / water from bubbler at fields was like heaven / riding your bike / automatics / off the wall / new pack of baseball cards………
* Hottest week I can remember
* Favorite sports books: Final Rounds / Junction Boys / Season on the Brink
* Don’t get the Dos Equis commercial campaign – I rarely drink beer but when I do…. Why have a guy that isn’t a beer drinker pushing your beer?
